Back in the day it just worked because you bought a card with a supported chip.... or you had to do some ungodly things with ndiswrapper to get the Windows driver loaded.
I think back then I was using wicd as well.
It's come a long way.
Omfg I remember ndiswrapper, how the fuck did that thing even work. Loading a windows driver on Linux???
